A federal judge in Arkansas ruled the state's ban on gender-affirming medical care for minors unconstitutional. The ruling was based on three factors: the Equal Protection Clause, parental rights to make medical decisions, and the First Amendment rights of physicians to consult with patients. The hosts express confusion over the legal logic, particularly the application of sex discrimination to trans-specific care.

The hosts report on the death of Master Sergeant Jonathan Dunbar in Syria, noting the lack of coverage in mainstream media compared to the Hogg controversy. They transition into a constitutional discussion regarding the Second Amendment and the preamble to the Bill of Rights, debating whether rights can be legally "repealed."

Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens called for the repeal of the Second Amendment to facilitate gun control legislation. The hosts compare this movement to the failed Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), noting that taking away a right is much harder than adding one. They argue that the push for repeal will likely backfire on Democrats by mobilizing pro-gun voters in the 2018 elections.

Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly died at age 92, leaving a legacy defined by her successful campaign to stop the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). Schlafly argued that the ERA would actually disadvantage women by subjecting them to the military draft and eliminating legal protections based on gender differences. Despite being a polarizing figure, she is credited with mobilizing the grassroots conservative movement that reshaped the Republican Party.

A segment from MSNBC is criticized for referring to "states' rights" as a "legal technicality" in the context of the DOMA debate. The hosts argue that this framing is a form of media programming designed to diminish the importance of the 10th Amendment. They contend that the federal government's involvement in marriage definitions is a secondary issue to the constitutional authority of individual states.
